Fall Beauty: Contour Your Cheeks For a Slimmer Face
For warm weather seasons, contouring the entire face with a matte bronzer is a perfect way to slim your face and fake a tan. During the winter, however, a tan is unlikely so a different approach needs to be taken to structure your face. Learn how to contour your cheeks for a natural yet chic slimming effect.
How To Contour Your Cheeks
- After applying foundation, use a matte taupe shadow for fair skin or a dark brown shadow for darker skin to contour your cheeks. Suck in your cheeks to find their natural contour (the area that is now hollowed). Apply the the shadow to the contours of your cheeks, blending up at a slight angle toward your ears.
- Take a second blush (soft pink for pale skin, coral or rose for fair skin, or berry/plum for darker skin) and apply this to the natural apples of your cheeks. For a frost-bitten look, dab a tad of this blush on the tips of your nose and your chin, also. Swipe more across your eyelids if you won’t be wearing shadow, but use mascara for an ultra-pretty look.
- Take a large blush brush and blend away any harsh lines. Apply a loose powder all over to set this look.
